Jasprit Bumrah, a key player for the Indian cricket team, has been placed on bed rest following back spasms sustained during the Sydney Test against Australia.
The injury, which has led to swelling, has raised significant concerns about his availability for crucial upcoming events like the Champions Trophy and the tour of England.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has not yet provided an official update, but sources indicate that Bumrah’s condition is being closely monitored with no rush to return him to play.
Discussions are rife within the cricket community about the management of his playing schedule, especially considering his history of back issues.
The Indian selectors are expected to make a decision on his participation in future tournaments based on the forthcoming medical reports.
